Outlet Groups: The bottom Configuration panel (refer back to p. 27) lets you select the outlets that you want to put together as an outlet group. Outlet groups enable control actions to be carr ied out on the entire group at the same time, rather than repeatedly per f orming th e sam e action on each in div id ual outlet.
M It is also possible to attach an in div idual UPS for each co m puter to th e PN9108U’s outlet ports. In this case: M Do not enable the PN9108U’s UPS fun ction - since that function only works with a UPS device attached to its RS-232 port.
